Haxby Road, York, North Yorkshire, YO31

Our discerning clients have acquired two of the most stunning two bedroom apartment in the entire 'Cocoa Works' development. The'Cocoa Works', Haxby Road has rapidly gained a reputation of being one of the premier developments and locations to live in York. Reserved off plan some four years ago these apartments as you will see were the very best this outstanding development had to offer. Situated in the 'Almond' Block both apartments benefit from an incredible double aspect living space with magnificent windows and full front Minster views. They are brand new and you will be the first to live here.


Accessed via lift or staircase and secure communal hallway the properties are set back on a very private part of the floor. The apartments come with a stunning finish throughout. The apartments which are near identical in size and layout are based on level 4 and 5 so benefit from wonderful uninterrupted views.

From the lift approach via a boutique hotel feel carpeted corridor to the solid front door. Entering inside there is a real feel of space with ample area at the entrance for shoes, side table, lamps etc. Kept separate and off the corridor is the double doored utility cupboard with high spec Samsung washer/dryer and an air purification system which runs through the apartment. There have been no corners cut.

The flooring from the hallway toad inside the living kitchen is truly beautiful and seriously catches the eye. Rich oak effect flooring laid in chevron style give a real sense of luxury and it is easy to clean down and will work with most furniture so super practical too.

The real heart of the apartment is an incredible double aspect open plan kitchen/living space. You need to see it for yourself to appreciate it fully but hopefully the photos offer an idea. The space is stunning and the windows are totally unique to what we have seen before and only a few apartments in the development have these extra large oversize panels that flood in the light and give the most amazing views of the City including the Minster.

The kitchen offers plenty of work surface area, storage and high quality appliances to include dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven, hob, microwave and extractor. The kitchen colour in an off black is striking and really sets off perfectly with the room. There is even a kitchen island with breakfast bar. There is ample space for an additional dining table as well as your sofa and coffee table. It is a very social space and ideal for entertaining friends and family and also will make a comfortable area to just crash out and relax. We love this room!

The two double bedrooms continue to impress. Both have a lovely feel, the principle benefits from a handy floor to ceiling wardrobe and lovely en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower with large rain shower head. If one did not require both bedrooms for sleeping the second would make an incredible office/study or additional reception room.


Tasteful blinds have been selected and will be fitted throughout the apartment. Wifi facilities are all in place for you too select a provider or choice and there is a video screen entry system for guests.

There are then more benefits! First a concierge service for your parcels and a secure parcel room all included in the rent. The apartments each have a designated parking space close to the entrance door for convenience. There is a bike store and lovely planted borders and green space around the beautiful building.

Still more...a gorgeous library building, fully kitted out with free Wifi, drinks area and plenty of seating. Again this is free for residents (part of the service charge your landlord is covering) and can only be accessed via your key thobs. A lovely place to meet people, a change of scene if you work from home and or just a super place to read and relax. Finally there is a very tasty cafe/restaurant in the most stunning timber/glass building next to the library. I can vouch for the food and drink! Planning also has for a small supermarket to be erected where the current sales and marketing suite is located so this is something we are told is coming in the not too distant future.



The location of the site was a real draw to our investor clients. The apartments are very close to the Hospital, Nestle and positioned in Avery handy location for the commuter. You can walk into the town centre in 15/20mins and there is also a bus route directly outside the development taking you into town and beyond.

Overall a truly beautiful building in a grade A location and these are among the pick of the very best apartments built here.
